Arrhenius Acid Definition: Hydronium breaks up to yield an H+ in solution. Arrhenius Base Definition: Hydroxide is an OH-dissolved in water. Bronsted-Lowry Acid Definition: Hydronium is an H+ donor regardless of solution. Bronsted-Lowry Base Definition: Hydroxide attacks and accepts the H+ from hydronium.Lewis Acid Definition: The H+ on Hydronium accepts the attacking electron pair to form a bond.ronsted-Lowry Acid Definition: Hydronium is an H+ donor regardless of solution.

It is believed that the first Ancient Chinese fire works were made in Han Dynasty (206 BC-220 AD). Fireworks in Ancient China were originally used for shows, christenings and special funeral ceremonies.
In 1232 AD the Chinese used rockets against the Mongols who were besieging the city of Kai-fung-fu. An arrow with a tube of gunpowder produced an arrow of flying fire. Early Chinese rockets were used in warfare and celebrations. In fact, the origin of the rocket is shown simply in these Chinese characters.
